Is there a tool to monitor the cpsw ports (other that ifconfig)?
I suspect that something in my config is not being supported by the nics.

I will be restoring configs to two new 4860s this week.  Can you advise if the loader.conf settings will be carried forward from the old device during the restore?  Also, what is the best way to to properly confirm/change these settings in loader.conf if needed?

Thank you ivor :)

Looking over your support ticket, we have requested some answers to some questions, this was over a month ago.

I have re-opened your ticket please update with the information we are requesting to properly troubleshoot your issue.

@jlauser:

Slightly harder sell to the wife at twice the price. :P

Buy her a new notebook and confiscate the old one for pfSense repurpose.

ZFS support is not a goal on ARM until we get to arm64.

@NogBadTheBad:

ipsec-profile-wizard is that available as a package, I can't see it ?

I'm running CE on my 4860.

Only available for factory installs. Is that RCC-VE 4860 or SG-4860 (purchased from pfSense store) ?

Purchased 31/5/16 from Amica in the UK, they forgot to put the image on the MSATA SSD that was purchased at the same time, so I installed the CE version and never thought any more about it.

We install those systems and then ship them to partners, it appears that the error is on our end. Sorry about that. Can you please send an email to support@netgate.com and link this thread? Then we can guide you on how to activate support and get access to portal.pfsense.org from where you can download factory images.

Thanks!

Thanks it's now sorted, just need to do the reinstall over the weekend. done, worked like a charm.

Hi Bob.

It's certainly not a common issue. If you are seeing the device being moved sufficiently that the power cable is being removed then some sort of cable restraint may be required.

Personally I would rather see something like this in a suitable size:

So the cable can be removed when required without leaving a sticky mess on everything.

@DaveLessnau:

Thanks.  Will do.

Thank you for purchasing the SG-1000!

Yes, my point precisely.

I'm using the IOgear GWU 637:

Unfortunately, still having trouble setting this up, possibly due to the cable, or change of WiFi SSID.

It's definitely not convenient, but I will keep trying until it's definitely confirmed as useless!

Less and less hotels these days with wired Ethernet, so I can't even use this normally…

Nevermind :) found it discussed in another thread.  It's called "Netgate_Coreboot_Upgrade".

That's what i thought when i didn't see it under VPN> , but didn't see it in the available packages.  Saw it this time.  Tired eyes, long day.

Thanks.  Love those easy answers

Hi,

It wasn't clear to me you have purchased the appliances from us. Sadly, things don't change. Manufacturer provides a fix for the hardware, in this case SuperMicro is the manufacturer. Due NDA's from SuperMicro and Intel, I am not able to provide any more details about this. That's why the phone call to SuperMicro is the best way.

Thanks.

@dennypage:

Is there a reason for not having an intermediate "halt" step? Pulling the plug on a remote system running UFS doesn't seem like a good idea…

Good question.  The Remote instructions did not call for a Halt, but since the dashboard was active, I did take the opportunity to issue a Halt and waited for the system to go down before I unplugged it.    Came up fine.  So is there a problem issuing the Halt after the double sync??

The bios download hasn't changed since the one I downloaded on the 11th, so I assume it's not a change to the flash script itself. If it is a change to instructions on the web site, it's really subtle.

Please provide some detail on this. Also, please note if it affects remote upgrades. Thanks.

Hello,

Thanks for your reply. I am afraid that 10~20Mbps through VPN is indeed the best I can get. That would be nice if I was lucky enough so that someone from netgate / pfSense could confirm that here. Can you please provide a link containing informations regarding the ARM crypto driver and its integration into pfsense ?

But without VPN I think there really is an issue with the maximum 25Mbps I get. Should be more than 100Mbps i think :

https://netgate.com/docs/sg-1000/faq.html#what-should-my-speed-test-results-be With a basic firewall setup we have shown it can pass around 130Mbit/s. In other conditions, the speed may be higher or lower depending on the firewall configuration, enabled features, environment and testing methods.

https://netgate.com/products/sg-1000.html Using pfSense with the default ruleset offers performance exceeding 200Mbps.

I guess you refer to SG-2220. I considered it but it's for home so I try to reduce the cost. And if I'm not mistaken we still don't have precise informations about that Intel Atom C2000 broken CPUs issue.
